Abstract
Two children had abrupt onset of hemiplegia due to childhood fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD). Although FMD is a recognized cause of strokes in adults, the disorder has not, to our knowledge, been reported previously in children. Our report reviews the pathology and diagnosis of FMD and discusses the complexities of its treatment.Entities:
